She took a hunter safety class in her hometown in Iowa when she was 14 and her parents emphasized proper gun handling from a very early age. In a video posted on Facebook, Meyer says she doesn't want her weapon to end up in the wrong hands. "If I sell this gun, it may get to the hands of a normal person, a mass murderer or a suicide victim," she says in the video. "And there's no way that I can know where it ends up, especially if it changes hands a few times. The only way I can know for sure that this gun doesn't hurt anyone is that it doesn't exist."
